GIVING AT SBL
For over one hundred and thirty-five years, SBL members have
regularly given their time and money to support each other as they study the
Bible, the world out of which it emerged, and the many contexts of biblical
interpretation.

WAYS TO GIVE

GIVE to the Society Fund
The Society Fund supports the unrestricted work of SBL.

GIVE to SBL's Programs, Services and Scholarships:

Bible Odyssey invites the general public to chart a journey through the social, historical, and literary richness of the best-selling, best-known book of all time.

International Cooperation Initiative provides free online PDF files of SBL publications, as well as partnering publishers, to scholars and students who would not otherwise have access to this scholarship.

The Richards Fund for the Bible in the Public Square
The purpose of this fund is to support the discussion of the
way sacred texts, and especially the Bible, play a role in and intersect with
the public square. This fund supports programs that bring people and
institutions together to unravel the past relationships of sacred texts and
public policies and envision new ways to shape this lively intersection.

The SBL International Travel Awardsoffer opportunities to current SBL members outside North America to attend the Annual or International Meeting, to participate in the program, to enhance their professional development, and to build their network with fellow scholars.
